Decision made! Next Bayern star to leave in the summer | OneFootball

Another personnel decision has apparently been made at FC Bayern: Raphaël Guerreiro is likely to leave the record champions in the summer

The Portuguese international’s contract is due to expire in a few weeks – and it has now been revealed that the club are not planning to extend it. The 32-year-old’s chapter in Munich will therefore come to an end after a comparatively short time. As transfer insider Mirko Di Natale reports, the decision has already been made that Guerreiro will leave the record champions at the end of the season

In recent months, it had already become apparent that Guerreiro would not play a major role in Bayern’s sporting plans. Although coach Vincent Kompany always publicly emphasized the importance of the veteran for the team, this was only reflected to a limited extent on the pitch

With just 908 minutes of action this season, the flexible left-back has fallen well short of expectations. Although he has been productive in his appearances, scoring four goals and providing three assists, he has lacked consistency and a lasting influence on the game

The decision not to extend his contract fits in with FC Bayern’s current strategic direction, with the focus increasingly on younger players with development potential and clearly defined roles in the squad

There could be major changes to the full-back positions in the summer anyway. Alphonso Davies‘ future is open, while those responsible are also scouring the market in search of new solutions

In this context, there no longer seems to be room for Guerreiro

According to Di Natale, there is interest from several top European leagues, including Ligue 1, Serie A and once again the Bundesliga

However, a concrete decision on his next club has yet to be made

After Leon Goretzka, Guerreiro would be the second player to leave the club on a free transfer in the summer.
